Technological Breakthrough at UA

"Technological progress has merely provided us with more efficient means for going backwards."

- Aldous Huxley -

It’s no wonder that Universite Antonine has been a fast growing
university in Lebanon. Its recent accomplishment is a technological revolution -a
digital application- that will transform the typical college experience to high
school students and redefine the early involvement in higher education
institutions.

The purpose behind this project, is for new comers to visit the UA
campus “virtually” through this app; room by room, lab by lab, enter the offices
and auditoriums with a click of a button. They can download the application on
their smart phones or tablets and access the university’s facilities at any
given time; furthermore, they would get a sense of belonging even before their
enrollment.

Mr. Fouad Abdallah has affirmed that this breakthrough will allow
high school students not only to have a theoretical vision about Universite
Antonine, but also to grasp “visually” the provided service. The proposal of
this application is divided into 3 phases:

-
Demonstration on tablets,
which has witnessed success among the youth.

-
Downloading the application
on smart phones and having individual access to the service.

-
Displaying this technology
on the university website.

To promote this breakthrough, the Universite Antonine has launched
a smart interactive touch pad; permitting users to make a tour on campus over
3D technology and panoramic photos of all the faculties and departments, also
including the cafeteria, the majors, the prices and other services.
